Mariah L. Wilcox born Virginia
I have a 2nd great grandmother by this name, who married an Elijah Barnes in Logan County Ohio in 1848.The family lived in Port Clinton, Ohio in which location at the same time also lived a John Wilcox of Virginia with his wife Charlotte. I have hit a brick wall locating Mariah's parents, but believe this John is her brother.When Mariah Wilcox Barnes moved in subsequent years, the family of John Wilcox also moved and to the same location.In addition, John and Charlotte named their children with the same names as Elijah and Mariah Wilcox Barnes.
I have followed John Wilcox from Port Clinton Ohio in 1850 census to Marion County, Indiana in the 1860 census.John and Charlotte had children Sidney, Amanda, John W. and either Cora or Dora.John W. Wilcox later moved to Orange County, Indiana in 1870, and New Albany in 1900.I would like to connect to anyone who knows this particular Wilcox family, as I believe it is mine.
